Ritual bath
(Ablution; Ghusul: Ritual ablution; Wash) A ritual bath ( arb. Ghusul.
Islamic Law) is customarily performed on a festival day, or before the Friday
congregational prayers, before starting a pilgrimage, after recovering from an
illness, or is necessitated by the emission of sperms either during one’s sleep or
following a marital intercourse. A ritual ablution is also given to a deceased
person before his funeral and burial, or otherwise is taken by the undertaker
himself after washing the dead. To take a ritual ablution in a dream before the
Friday congregational prayers means purifying oneself, washing oneself from
sin, repenting from sin, serving one’s parents, or being true to one’s friends.
Taking a ritual ablution for any of the above reason during the wintertime and
using cold water in the dream means distress, trouble or a sickness. If hot water
is used, then it means profits, benefits and recovering from sickness. Taking a
ritual ablution in a dream before attending a festival means getting married.
Taking a ritual ablution after seeing either a solar or a lunar eclipses in a dream
means an adversity, and the same applies if one takes a ritual ablution in a
dream before the prayers of asking for rain. To take a ritual ablution after
washing a deceased person in a dream means abandoning one’s association with
heedless people. If the person who performs such an ablution is mentally
deranged, it means that he will wake-up cured from his condition. Taking a
ritual ablution prior to joining the sacred pilgrimage in a dream means
happiness, success, victory over one’s enemy, paying one’s debts, or reuniting
with one’s beloveds. Taking a ritual ablution before circumambulating the
sacred House in Mecca in a dream means working for one’s livelihood, serving
rich people, or caring for one’s wife and parents. If a sick person sees himself
taking a ritual ablution then putting on a new garment in a dream, it means that
he will soon recover from his illness. Taking a ritual ablution in a dream also
could mean the release of a prisoner, payment of one's debts, dispelling one’s
distress, or it could mean richness, prosperity, attending the sacred pilgrimage
in Mecca, or having a successful business. If one does not put a new garment
after taking his ritual ablution in the dream, it means that he will be able to
lighten his burdens, or recover his good health. Walking into a pond, or
descending a well, or stepping into a bathtub to take a bath in a dream means
marriage. Washing oneself with soap during such an ablution means dispensing
of one’s debts, or dispelling one’s stress. Washing one’s garment after taking a
Ghusul in a dream means correcting one’s conduct, pursuing the correct
religious life, paying one’s debts, or washing away one’s filth. If one sees a
deceased person washing himself before his burial in a dream, it means relief
for one’s dependents and increase of their wealth after him. Giving a ritual
ablution to a deceased person in a dream also means that someone will repent
for his sins at the hand of the undertaker. If a deceased person asks someone
to wash his clothes for him in a dream, it means that he needs someone to pray
for him, or to intercede on his behalf before his Lord, or to pay charity for the
benefit of his soul, or to pay his debts, or to fulfill his will, or to do him justice.
If one does fulfills the deceased person’s wish and washes his clothes for him in
the dream, it means the redemption of such a person. (Also see Ablution)

(Adjust; Arrange; Institute) Organizingthings in a dream means knowledge,
or earning and saving lawful money.
Interpreted by Ibn Sirin
Giving
(Allot; Distribute; Gift; Offer) Giving something in a dream indicates the
value or worth of the giver. If one gives his workers or a needy person little
money when they merit more, it denotes his disobedience to the commands of
God Almighty, or straying away from the prophetic traditions. If one is denied
what he is asking for in a dream, it means failure in his religious practices,
suffering from the consequences of challenging others and arguing about
religious laws, or it could represent one’s perilous pursuit of heedless thoughts.
If a sick person sees himself paying his debts in a dream, it means his death or
the spoiling of his wealth. If he is healthy, then it denotes a case of mental
derangement, anger, lack of self-control or raising one’s voice unnecessarily. If
a poor person sees himself paying someone’s debt in a dream, it means that he
will receive benefits. Receiving monetary compensation by a court order in a
dream denotes lawful earnings.

Masjid
(arb. God’s House; Mosque; Place of worship) In Arabic, the word masjid
means a place of prostration, while the word Jami means a place of gathering.
A masjid or a mosque in a dream represents a scholar and its gates represent
men of knowledge and the guardians, or the attendants of God’s House. Building
a masjid in a dream means emulating the traditions of God’s Prophet, upon
whom be peace, fostering the unity of one’s family, or becoming a judge, should
one qualify for such an office. A masjid filled with people in a dream represents
a gnostic, a man of knowledge and wisdom, or a preacher who invites people
to his house, advises them, brings their hearts together, teaches them the
precepts of their religion and explains the wisdom behind the divine revelations.
Seeing a masjid being demolished in a dream means that such a gnostic, or
religious scholar and devout believer will die in that locality. In a dream, if the
roof of a masjid caves in, it means that one will indulge in an abominable action.
If one sees a stranger performing his prayers in a masjid in a dream, it means
that the Imam of that masjid will dies from a terminal illness. If one enters a
masjid in the company of a group of people, and if they dig a small hole for him
inside the masjid in the dream, it means that he will get married. If one’s house
becomes a masjid in a dream, it means that he will attain piety, purity of heart,
escetic detachment and an honor he will receive from his brethren. He will also
call upon them to follow what is true and to abstain from what is false. If a masjid
is transformed into a bathhouse in a dream, it means that a chaste person will
turn corrupt or become heedless. A masjid in a dream also represents a
marketplace or a business. If one has to climb up a staircase to reach the masjid
in a dream, then the masjid represents a thrifty person who does not like to
share what he has. If one has to climb down a staircase to reach the masjid in
a dream, it means that his needs will be satisfied. If a masjid in the city is moved
to a remote village in a dream, it means stagnation of one’s business, being
ostracized from one’s community, or it could mean legal complications related
to one’s inheritance. If a ruler builds a house for God Almighty or a masjid in
a dream, it means that he will be a just ruler and he will govern his subject by
the divine laws. If a religious scholar builds a masjid in a dream, it means that
he will author a book that will benefit others, or delivers a commentary on a
complex religious issue, or if he is wealthy, it means that he will pay the alms
tax due on his assets. Building a masjid in a dream also means getting married,
or conceiving a child who will grow to become a righteous and a knowledgeable
scholar, or if one is poor, it means that he will become rich. Otherwise, it means
that one will serve God’s House and fill it with invocations, supplications,
serving the interest of the community, leading the people to unity and love, and
teaching them to value obedience to God’s commands. Building a masjid in a
dream also could mean becoming a real estate agent, or repenting from one’s
sins, or receiving guidance on God’s path, or to die as a martyr, hence, what one
builds for God Almighty in a dream, represents his house in paradise. Such
interpretation applies if one builds a masjid following the proper procedures
and with lawfully earned money, and using proper materials. Otherwise,
building it with what is unlawful of money or materials in the dream, or
changing the direction of the prayer niche, etcetera, then one’s dream will carry
the opposite meaning. If one builds a masjid or a fellowship house in a dream,
it means that he will seek the path of knowledge and wisdom, or that he will
attend a pilgrimage during that same year, or establish a permanent business,
such as a hotel, a bathhouse or a shop, etcetera. Building the roof of a masjid
in a dream means taking care of orphans, or sponsoring homeless children.
Expanding a masjid in a dream means increase in one’s good deeds, repentance
from a sin, adopting good conduct, or being just. Seeing oneself inside a new
masjid one does not recognize in a dream means attending the pilgrimage to
God’s House in Mecca during that same year, or joining religious circles to learn
about one’s religion. If one’s shop becomes a masjid, or if the masjid becomes a
shop in the dream, it denotes lawful earnings, or it could mean mixing lawful
and unlawful earnings. A forsaken masjid or mosque in a dream means
intentionally ignoring the value of gnostics and religious scholars, or denying
the necessity to command what is good and to eschew what is evil. A forsaken
masjid in a dream also denotes the presence of ascetics who have renounced the
world and its people and care less about their material possessions. A known
mosque in a dream represents the city where it is erected. For instance, the Aqsa
mosque in a dream represents Jerusalem, the Sacred mosque represents Mecca,
the Prophet’s Mosque (uwbp) represents Medina, the Omayyad mosque represents
Damascus, Al-Azhar mosque represents Cairo and the Blue mosque represents
Istanbul, etcetera. A known mosque in a dream also could represent the
renowned scholars who live in that place, or the ruler of that country, or any
of his ministers. If one enters a mosque and immediately after crossing the
entrance gate, he prostrates himself to God Almighty in the dream, it means
that he will be given the opportunity to repent for his sins. If one comes to a
masjid and finds its doors locked, then if someone opens the door to him in a
dream, it means that he will help someone in paying his debt, then extol his good
virtues in public. If one enters a mosque riding on an animal in a dream, it means
that he will cut off his connection with his relatives, leave them behind and
forbid them to follow him. If one dies in a masjid in a dream, it means that he
will die as a true penitent. If the carpet or the straw mat of a mosque becomes
a shredded rag in the dream, it means that the community of that masjid is
divided and corrupt. Building a masjid in a dream also means overcoming one’s
enemy. Entering the Sacred Mosque in Mecca in a dream means arriving with
one’s bride to their new home and it could mean fulfillment of a promise, being
truthful, dispelling one’s fear and reaching the shore of safety. (Also see Minaret;
Minbar; Mosque)

Anus
(Backside) In a dream, it represents the husband or money. If one sees his
anus blocked in a dream, it means that he will die shortly. The anus in a dream
also represents a lowly person, a cheap musician, a drummer, someone who
holds secrets, a kin or a relative with whom it is not lawful to be married. Seeing
the backside of a young person in a dream means separation between the two.
If it is an older person in the dream, it means a fight between them. Causing
cuts in one’s anus means severing family ties. Seeing the anus of one’s mother
in a dream means nullification of one’s devotion, cancellation of one’s due
interests or the stagnation of one’s business. Seeing someone’s anus in a dream
means meeting with a frowning person. If one’s anus bleeds in the dream, it
means money. If one sees himself excreting in a dream, it means spending
money with a clear intent of benefiting from it. Seeing the anus of an unknown
woman in a dream means material losses, or it could mean difficulties in ac¬
quiring the necessary money for one’s livelihood. Seeing worms coming from
one’s anus means departing from one’s children or loss of one’s children. If a
cloth comes out of one’s anus in a dream, it means severing relations with
strangers who took advantage of one’s children and abused their rights. Having
sexual intercourse with a woman through the anus in a dream means asking for
something in the wrong way. If one sees a peacock coming out of his anus in a
dream, it means that he will beget a beautiful daughter. If he sees a fish coming
out of his anus in a dream, it means that his wife will beget an ugly looking
daughter. (Also see Pederasty; Sexual intercourse; Sodomy)

fearing woman. Plucking a red rose in a dream means kissing a fun loving
woman. Smelling the fragrance of a yellow rose in a dream means kissing a sick

happiness, or a promise that does not last. Receiving a rose from a young man
in a dream means receiving a promise that will not hold too. Seeing a crown of
roses over one’s head in a dream means getting married. Roses on a tray in a
dream signify the pleasure of youth that does not last, or they could denote the
temporary joy of this world. Roses in a dream also signify praiseworthiness, or
enjoying a good reputation. Rose oil or attar which is made from the petals of
damask roses in a dream means intelligence, clarity of mind, a friendly and a
gentle person. If a sick person sees himself laying on a bed of flowers in a dream,
it means that he might die within forty days, because forty days represent the
life span of a rose blossom. Cutting off a rosebush in a dream means distress.
Harvesting roses in a dream means joy.

Tomcat
(Book of records; Cat; Reckoning; Siamese cat; Thief) In a dream, a tomcat
means a thief or a servant. A cat in a dream also represents an evil and a
treacherous woman. The same interpretation is given for anyone who compasses
people, or guards them, or someone who harms the interests of his employer
more than he benefits him. If a tomcat scratches someone or bites him in a
dream, it means that he will fall sick for a full year. The bite of a wildcat in a
dream is more dangerous and has greater implications. If one sees a tomcat
sitting peacefully and quietly in his house in a dream, it means that he will have
a comfortable, peaceful and a profitable year. Otherwise, a large wildcat in the
dream represents a troublesome year. Selling a tomcat in a dream means
spending one’s money in various charities. Eating a cat in a dream means
learning about sorcery. If one sees himself transformed into a tomcat in a dream,
it means that he lives from stealing and seeks what is harmful. A tomcat
entering one’s house in a dream represents a robber. Whatever a tomcat takes
from one’s house in the dream will be looted by such a thief. Killing or beating
a tomcat in a dream means catching a thief or killing him. If one extracts fat from
a cat in a dream, it means that he will receive stolen money or a share thereof.
Fighting with a tomcat in a dream means an affliction with a long and a
debilitating illness that will be followed by a complete recovery. If the tomcat
loses the fight, and if the man is already sick, it means that he will recover from
his illness shortly thereafter. Otherwise, if he loses in the dream, it means that
his illness has reached its peak. A cat or a tomcat in a dream also represent
reckoning, estrangement of one’s wife, her roughness with her husband, or they
could represent ill behaved children with their parents, fights, theft, adultery,
lack of loyalty, eavesdropping, taunting, roaring, clamor, a bastard son, a
foundling or an orphan. On the other hand, a cat in a dream could represent a
toadying person, dancing, being playful and kind, though awaiting to jump at
the first opportunity to spoil others’ peace. If the cat, the tomcat and the mouse,
or the lamb and the wolf become friends in the dream, it means hypocrisy,
affectation and loss of moral standards. A civet cat in a dream represents a man
who may have a suspicious look, though his character and conduct are exem¬
plary. (Also see Cat)

(Brand; Burn; Castigate; Punishment; Seal; Sear) Cauterization in a
dream denotes a ruler, or it could mean painful words. If one’s forehead or sides

the distribution of charities or the due alms tax on one’s assets, or it could mean
a crack down by the authorities on people who are evading to pay their taxes,
or it could mean separation between dear ones. If one is cauterized with gold or
silver in the dream, it means stinginess or hindering the payment or distribu¬
tion of God’s rights upon one’s earnings to poor and needy people. If one is
cauterized with iron in a dream, it means punishment for his sins. Discovering
old marks from cauterization in a dream means discovering a treasurer.

and painful words. If the mark left by such cauterization looks like a rounded
seal in a dream, it means subjugation to a court order or complying with the law.

married, or it could mean slandering a stranger. Discovering a burn caused by
cauterization in one’s chest in a dream means presiding over people. If one’s

Transformation
(Changing form) Transformation by substitution in a dream
where one thing is converted into something else. If a withered tree is trans¬
formed into a blossoming one in a dream, it means political changes, changes
in worldly conditions, or reversal of conditions from good to bad, or from bad to
good. This element includes the transformation of inner substances or physical
ones. For example, if sees himself as an old person in a dream, when in real life
he is young, it means progress in his spiritual life and gaining honor. If he is an
old person and sees himself as a young boy in a dream, it means indulging in
wrongdoing. If one sees a known old person regaining his youth, it means that
the material conditions of the person seeing the dream will turn around to one’s
advantage or otherwise, i.e., richness into poverty and vice-versa, or if he is sick,
he will recover from his illness. If one is transformed into a beautiful shoot of
green or a blossoming branch of a tree in a dream, it means that he may die
within a short time. Becoming taller in a dream means longevity, prosperity, or
begetting a son. If one finds himself missing partial mental keenness or physical
abilities or a limb in a dream, it means that he may suffer losses relating to his
worldly interests. If a man sees himself transformed into a woman, and wears
her apparels, ornaments and make-up in a dream, it means that he may suffer
humiliation, adversities and abuse. If a woman sees herself transformed into a
man, or if she grows a beard in a dream, it means that she will reestablish her
connection with a missing child. As a man in the dream, and if she is pregnant,
it means that she will beget a son who may die in his early youth, but if she is
not pregnant, it means that she is no longer fertile. If one sees himself flying with
wings in a dream, it means travels. If one sees himself transformed into a
wooden staff in a dream, it represents his insolence. If one sees himself
transformed into an iron rod in a dream, it means longevity. If one sees himself
transformed into a bridge in a dream, it means that he may become a ruler, a
wise man, or a man of knowledge whom people will seek to benefit from his
wisdom. If a person sees his sick child turn into a bird in a dream, it means the
death of the child. If one sees himself turned into a beast in a dream, it means
that he will be segregated from the believers to live alone because of his evil
qualities. If one sees himself turned into a deer, a gazelle or an antelope in a
dream, it means that he will become obsessed with his sexual life, or that he will
become mentally deranged to the degree of indulging in bisexual practices. If he
turns into a pig in a dream, it means prosperity surrounded with absence of
human dignity. If one sees a steer transformed into a wolf in a dream, it
represents a government employee who will turn unjust. However, according to
Islamic interpretations of the human transformation into a lower category of
creatures phenomena, if such transformation takes place in real life, it connotes
a curse and a punishment, and it does not last for more than three days, and
it will culminate in death. (Also see Changing form)

private life. Drapes in a dream also represent a confidant or a trustworthy friend
or a wife who covers the pitfalls of her husband, protects his business and guards
him from looking at other women. If a man of knowledge sees such a dream, then

drapes in a dream represent worries or distress. If the drapes are hanging over
one’s front door in the dream, it means that such difficulties will come from the
world. Old drapes in a dream represent adversities which will not last. Torn
drapes in a dream mean happiness and joy. If they are torn vertically in the
dream, they represent a quick joy. If they are torn horizontally in the dream,
they mean slander against one’s family. Black drapes in a dream mean worries
because of money, a child, or the authorities. White or green drapes mean good
results. Drapes hanging over the door of a mosque in a dream represent spiritual
problems or religious failure. Seeing drapes out of their place in a dream mean
adversities, and seeing them hanging over one’s windows has no interpretation.
In a dream, seeing drapes hanging over a strange environment means fears
which will culminate in satisfaction. Drapes adorned with gold means hallu¬
cination or dispelling one’s worries. If an unmarried person sees drapes in his
dream, it means that he will get married and protect his chastity, or it could
mean a business that will shelter him from poverty. If a fugitive or a scared
person sees himself covered with drapes in a dream, it means a shelter from
what scares him. Falling through a hole while hanging to a drape in a dream
means taking a long, frustrating, toiling and a distant journey. The bigger the
drapes are in a dream, the more difficult is one’s adversity.

paradise. In general, insanity represents profits equal to the degree of one’s
irrational behavior in his dream. How mad is he in his dream may indicate how
rich he will become. However, such profits will be spent in sinful ways and in
the company of an evil companion. Insanity in a dream also can be interpreted
as receiving an inheritance. The madness of one’s son in a dream represents the
father’s benefits. The madness of a woman in a dream represents a good harvest
for that year. Insanity in a dream is also interpreted as being madly in love. It
also could signify suffering from harsh beating, or perhaps it could mean
offering good deeds without anticipating any reward. (Also see Irrationality;
Mental derangement; Mental hospital)

is wearing perfume, then one could expect good news and a commendation for
his work. If one sees himself holding a closed book in a dream, it means the end
of his life in this world. If one sees a flyer or a public announcement in display
by the authorities in a dream, it means that he will gain leadership, happiness

unopened in the dream, it means losing a war to one’s enemy. If he is a merchant,

news it brings, it will be the same in wakefulness. A book in a dream also
represents one’s companion, or an intimate friend. Seeing a book in a dream also

Garden
(Flower garden) A garden in a dream means repentance, and repentance
from sin in a dream means a garden. Watering one’s garden in a dream means
having marital relations. If one sees his garden dry in a dream, it means that
his wife has commenced her menstrual period during which he is not permitted
to have sexual intercourse with her. If he sees someone else watering his garden
in a dream, it means that such a person will betray him with his wife. If one sees
himself entering an unknown garden with its trees unattended and its pasture
unkempt in a dream, it means distress and worries. A garden in a dream also
represents a woman. They both need water and they both bear fruits or children.
In this case, if the garden is interpreted to represent a woman, then its trees and
fruits represent her tribe, family and children. An unknown garden in a dream
also represents the Holy Quran. A garden in a dream also represents a
marketplace, a new bride’s house, a property, an animal domesticated for
service, a shop, a business, a tavern, a bathhouse, generosity, an army made of
slaves, cattle or personal assets. If one sees himself inside a garden in a dream,
it means comfort and growth in his life. If the house to which this garden belongs
is God’s house, then the man seeing it is in paradise. If he is sick, it means that
he will die from his illness and enter that paradise. If the garden is unknown
in the dream, it means martyrdom and particularly if he finds inside the garden
a woman calling him to herself, or to drink milk or honey from the garden’s rivers
and the same is true if the garden does not look like the ones he is accustomed
to see in the world. Otherwise, If one sees himself looking at a garden, and if he
is unmarried, it means that he will meet a suitable woman and get married. If
he is married, it means that he will receive joy from his wife equal to that which
he received from the garden in his dream. If one finds within such a garden a
group of associates or colleagues, the garden then represents a marketplace. If
one sees a servant or a worker of his urinating inside a well or a stream inside
such a garden in the dream, it means that a relative will betray the interests
of the family. A garden whose owner is known in a dream represents a mosque,
a park, people of knowledge, ignorant people, the generous ones or the stingy
ones. It also represents a meeting place where the rich and the poor, the
righteous and the insolent gather. A garden in a dream also may indicate a
religious center, a school, a center for scientific research and studies, a place of
worship, etcetera. If one enters a garden at the season of plucking its fruits in
a dream, it means glad tidings, money and increase in one’s good deeds,
marriage or children. On the other hand, if he enters a garden in the fall in a
dream, it means defamation, indebtedness, divorce, or it could mean loss of a
child. Seeing a deceased person in a garden means that he is in paradise. A
garden in a dream also represents a source of nourishment. Its fruits are colorful
and their taste ranges from sweet to salty and from sour to bitter. (Also see House
garden; Quran)

Hail
(Icy rain) In a dream, hail means calamity, sufferings, hunger, loss of
property, poverty, mass persecution, or torture. In nature, this element cools the
earth and eliminates many harmful insects, worms or scorpions and limits the
danger of snakes. Thus, seeing hail in its proper season in a dream means
eliminating the source of one’s stress and overcoming one’s difficulties, enemies,
or jealous competitors. Seeing hail in the summertime in a dream means
business losses, but if it falls in the winter in a dream, it means success and
prosperity. Heavy falling hail in a dream means destruction of businesses,
interruption of communication and damage to roads and highways. In that
sense, hail in a dream means obstruction of public interests. In a dream, hail
also represents a strange type of business that will come from the direction of
the wind carrying such a storm. If no harm occurs in one’s dream, then hail
represents glad tidings and especially if people start collecting it in bowls. If hail
falls over a farmland without damaging it in a dream, it means a good harvest.
If one gathers hail in his garment, or inside a cloth in a dream, it means that
he will lose his riches, or it could mean the loss of an awaited shipment. (Also

wife. If one sees himself seeking a door which he couldn’t find in a dream, it
means indecision. Entering a house from its main door means triumph against
one’s opposition. If the door of one’s house opens to the street in a dream, it
means that what one earns will be of benefit to strangers rather than to his own
household. The disappearing of a door in a dream means death of the head of
that household. Passing through a small door into an open space means relief
from difficulties. If one sees himself leaving his house from the main door into
a spacious green garden in a dream, it means entering the realms of the
hereafter. If one sees two ringlets or door knockers hanging at his door in a
dream, it means indebtedness to two people who are demanding to be paid. If
one sees fire burning his door in a dream, it means the death of his wife, or it
may mean his failure to properly manage that household. The gates of a city
represent a righteous governor. In a dream, the door of a house also represents
the protection it houses behind it, including one’s property, personal secrets and
family. If the door is well built in a dream, it means protection of one’s private
life. Otherwise, whatever maybe seen through such a door means exposing one’s
private life. If one sees a carpenter building him a new door, this means glad
tidings of health and wealth. If one sees himself unable to properly secure the
closing of his door in a dream, it means difficulties caused by his wife. If one sees
himself changing his door in a dream, it means moving into another house. If
one sees himself entering his house and locking his door in a dream, it means
protection against evil. (Also see Doorjamb; Door post)

Castration
If one intends to bank something with someone as a trust or to confide
a secret with someone, then if he witnesses a case of castration in a dream, he
should immediately halt that intention, or cancel such arrangement. If one sees
himself castrated in his dream, it means that he declines to testifying to the
truth. If one finds that he became castrated, or if he does so to himself in a dream,
it means that he will be inflicted with humiliation and submission to someone’s
command. If one meets a castrated person who is unknown to him and who has
a dignified look and speaks words of wisdom in the dream, it means that he has
met an angle who is conveying glad tidings or bringing a warning from his Lord.
If he recognizes the castrated person in his dream, it means that he has met with
an acquaintance of his. Seeing oneself castrated in a dream also means increase
in one’s devotion and guarding of his chastity. Castration in a dream also means
negation of favors, loss of one’s family or children, or it may imply absence of

Ring
In a dream, a ring represents peace, tranquility, authority, a wife, a child,
or a job, the reward of which will equal the value and size of the gemstone which

dream represents his kingdom. Cutting off a tight ring with a pair of pliers in

dream represent his goals. If the gemstone of one’s ring falls in a dream, it may
mean the death of his child, or the loss of his business. A broken ring in a dream
means divorce. Wearing a ring made of iron in a dream means that one will
receive benefits though with great strain on him. Wearing a golden ring carry ing
a precious stone in a dream means that such benefits will come with ease. If it
is a plain ring or a band with no stone, it means engaging in a strenuous project
and getting nothing out of it. Rings made of ivory or from an animal’s horn in
a dream represent glad tidings for a woman. Seeing someone in authority
stamping a document with his ring as a seal in a dream means that one will
receive an important political appointment. If one who is accustomed to wearing
a silver ring sees himself offering it as a gift to whoever he wishes in a dream,
it means that he will preside over an honorable post. Wearing the governor’s
ring in a dream means an appointment as a dignitary, or inheriting such a rank
from one’s father. If one’s father does not hold such a position, then it means the
opposite of one’s wishes. Finding a lost ring in a dream means earning money
from a foreign land, or having a new born son, or it could mean a marriage to
a righteous woman. If the stone of one’s ring seems unstable in the dream, it
means that one will be fired form his job. Removing one’s ring in a dream means
that one maybe removed from his job. If a woman sees herself removing her
wedding ring in a dream, it means the death of either her husband or of a close
relative. A ring in a dream also connotes a band, an encumbrance, or a shackle.
If one’s ring disappears and only the stone remains in the dream, it means that
once the responsibilities are gone, good memories of the person will remain. A
man wearing a golden ring in a dream represents innovation, and the results
will bring about afflictions, betrayal, or a revolt. Wearing a tight ring in the
dream means that one will be let off from a vicious woman, or that he will be
spared from a wicked duty. A borrowed wedding ring in a dream represents an

the open market in a dream, it means that the estates of the high society are
for sale or it could represent foreclosure. If one sees the skies raining rings in
a dream, it means that he will conceive a child during that year. If he is unwed,
it means that he will marry a rich and a virgin young woman during that same
year. If they are gold rings in the dream, it means that such a woman has lost
her wealth. If one places a ring in his little finger then removes it to place it on
his ring finger, then removes it again to place it on his middle finger in the
dream, it means that he solicits customers for a prostitute. If one notices his ring
sometime in his little finger, then in his middle finger, then in his ring finger
without his doing in the dream, it means that his wife will betray him with
another man. If he sells his ring for pennies or a handful of sesame, or for little
flour in a dream, it means that he will separate from his wife, though they will
have respect for one another, or it could mean that he will offer her a good
financial arrangement. Receiving a ring that is inlaid with a precious stone from
one’s son in a dream represents the good character and qualities of such a son.
A stone which is made from worthless glass beads in the dream denotes a weak
authority. A ring that is inlaid with a green sapphire in the dream means
begetting an intelligent son who will become a great man of knowledge. A
wooden ring in a dream represents a hypocritical woman. If a woman is offered
a ring in a dream, it means that she will get married, and for a married woman,
it means that she will give birth to a son. If the ring in one’s dream is interpreted
to mean money or clothing, then it represents one’s status and high esteem his
field. Receiving a ring as a gift in a dream also means happy news, or a marriage
to a beautiful woman. Seeing an atheist who publicly brags about his actions and
thoughts wearing a ring and turning its stone toward the palm of his hand in
a dream, it means that he engages in sodomy. If a believer turns his ring inside
during prayers in a dream, then it represents his modesty. Wearing a ring that
carries two gemstones, one to the outside and the other to the inside in a dream
means that one may chair two important appointments, material and a spiritual
ones, or inner and outer ones. Wearing a ring with a carnelian-red stone in a
dream means an end to one’s poverty. If a pious person, a religious person or an
ascetic receives a silver ring from God Almighty in a dream, it means his
salvation on the Day of Judgment. If he receives a silver ring from God’s
Messenger (uwbp) in a dream, it represents a gift of a greater knowledge. If it
is gold, iron, or copper, then it has negative consequences, because iron rings
represent the chains of the dwellers of hell-fire. Somehow, to wear a simple band
in one’s dream is better than wearing a heavy ring. Heavy rings in a dream also
may connote an assassination or deceit. On the other hand, large rings in a
dream also can be interpreted to mean something great, or something which
entails sizable benefits. Lead rings in a dream mean weak authority. If one
sends his ring to some people who returns it to him in the dream, it means that
he is asking to betroth someone from such a family, but his request will be
declined. If one sees his ring being forcefully pulled out from his finger in a
dream, it means that he will lose his rank or whatever the ring represents to
him. If one loses his ring in a dream, it means that he will experience something
he hates to see it happening to him. (Also see Games; Solomon’s ring)
